Hello, I am trying to write a script to run a PowerPoint presentation in kiosk mode that must be locked down and can't be interrupted. I made two accounts a Administrator account and a regular account named kiosk which I will be using to run the PowerPoint presentation. Using group POLICIES through MMC and the snap-in I have found a way so that the kiosk account logs in automatically and will than start my PowerPoint presentation in kiosk mode. The only problem I am having is finding a way to lock down my PowerPoint so that a user can't stop the presentation by for example hitting the Esc key, using cntrl+alt+delete, opening another program, etc....pretty much anything that would stop my PowerPoint presentation must be locked down or REMOVED. I know there is a fairly simple way to write a script so that it first checks to see if Powerpoint is RUNNING and than restarts it if anyone finds a way to stop the presentation. I am horrible at scripting and could REALLY use help with this..please help PEOPLE??Why not just block some keystrokes? Or damage the ESC key?
During the presentation, what are t he key strokes the user would normally use?
And if you lock out the obvious keys, what would you use to exit the program?
Did you already read this?
Setup a computer with Windows 7 to be used as Kiosk computer
And yes, you can have a background task to make sure the presentation is running.
